The Winery
Taking care of the processes
Step by step, with the greatest care in the processes, with the experience of great professionals, inherited from many years and the latest technology, we achieve the highest quality.
We control the quality of the grape, at reception, to classify it in function of the different products that are going to be elaborated.
When the grapes enter the winery, on the reception scale, a sample is taken and various parameters are analyzed in real time: Brix Degree, Baumé Degree, PH, Total Acidity and Temperature; On the other hand, analysis is carried out using an enzymatic method to determine the health status of the grape (Potassium and Gluconic Acid). From there, they go to some unloading sites or others depending on whether they bring white, red, organic grapes and depending on the variety.
We pamper the grape so that it offers us its most precious juice and thanks to the magic of fermentation and our team of professionals, we will achieve a magnificent result.
In the production of white wines, such as Sauvignon Blanc, Verdejo, Chardonnay, Viognier and Moscatel, we carry out a small pre-fermentation maceration in a self-emptying tank, so that, together with the cold, we can favor the extraction of aromatic precursors from the grape. From here the yolk must is bled (approximately 50%) and the mass of grapes is pneumatically pressed. In both cases, these musts are taken to clarification or cleaning by static settling (cold decantation of the musts for 24-48 hours). These racked musts (clean musts) are sent directly to fermentation in a tank at a very controlled temperature, between 14-16ºC and with a duration of 15-20 days.
We take care of the color, we love the aromas, we respect the integrity of the grape.
For the production of red wine, most of our self-emptying tanks are adapted to the Ganímede system in which we take advantage of the carbon dioxide generated in the fermentation itself to, with this gas, remove the entire mass of red grapes in maceration and thus avoid having to break up the grapes with bombs to pump over the mass of grapes. With this technique we manage to respect more the integrity of the grape and obtain a greater aromatic expression in the wines.
In addition, we have an innovative system, Air Mixing, for the production of red wines, mainly aimed at the most aromatic varietals. With this system we get more expressive wines using air for the homogenization of the grape paste and without using pumping over.
We make wines on demand to satisfy each client's wishes.
Once the wines have finished fermentation (both white and red) they are racked, centrifuged and the last oenological corrections are made.
In order to adapt to the different market needs, we produce wines on demand. Due to the large number of grape varieties that we have, we can make the wine coupage that best suits each client, playing with variety mixtures, oaked wines, residual sugar wines, in short, with any combination requested by the client, offering maximum flexibility.
In addition to the type of wine, we can serve fully prepared wines, for the bulk market, with all the processes prior to final bottling: Clarification, Filtration and Tartaric Stabilization.
We preserve the wines so that they reach the consumer with all its early days' essence and freshness.
Although we are in a very hot area in summer, we currently have the ideal means to keep wines at the right temperature throughout the year. We are having more and more air-conditioned warehouses, so that these wines do not suffer the passage of summer. In addition, in the warmer months, the refrigeration systems are started up in order to keep the wines tempered. Our goal in the upcoming years is none other than to achieve an improvement in all the facilities for the excellent wine preservation: isolated warehouses, tank inerting, temperature control, inert gas transfers, etc.
